I know standard procedure is to get sponsored before the race... but after two cancellations and a chaotic couple of years, I wasn’t sure if this year's Leeds Half Marathon would go ahead let alone if I’d be at the start line! However, yesterday I completed the race amongst some lovely Leeds locals and thought I may as well use it as an excuse to ask anyone who can to support St George’s Crypt.

After collaborating with them as part of LUU Amnesty last year, I saw first-hand the amazing work they do for the homeless, the vulnerable and those suffering from substance abuse in the city all year round (and the team are all lovely!)

 £100 would go towards three days of meals, an hour of support and a 'Move on box' which has essentials for someone moving into new accommodation. I would love to be able to raise this amount if you can help by donating anything you can spare!
